Mohamed Salah is currently facing a stiff fight to secure his third Premier League Golden Boot as Tottenham\u2019s cavalier Heung-Min Son breathes down his neck.<\/p>\n
Although the Liverpool forward was quick out of the blocks and led the scoring charts for most of the season, he now faces a serious threat in the imperious orm of Spurs star Son \u2013 who is only a whisker behind the Reds\u2019 striker as he bagged his 21st goal of the season in the 3-0 win over Arsenal.<\/p>\n
With just two matches remaining, the stunning South Korean striker is in scintillating form to achieve his first ever top-flight Golden Boot.<\/p>\n
Harry Kane \u2013 the previous reciplient of the prestigious award on two occasions \u2013 has vowed to help his team-mate Son nab this year\u2019s prize, although he did caution restrain that the main mission is still primarily to secure the final top 4 spot as he stopped short of promising Son spot-kick duties during the club\u2019s final game against Norwich.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ll have to wait to see what happens,\u201d Kane said.<\/p>\n
\u201cSonny has been fantastic for us, another goal tonight, we\u2019ve got another important game on Sunday that I\u2019m sure he\u2019ll be ready for.<\/p>\n
\u201cHopefully we can win him the Golden Boot, that\u2019ll be nice but of course, he knows and we know that the three points are the most important thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Salah, meanwhile, seemed a tad self-righteous as he claimed that his goalscoring numbers are proof that he should be considered the best in the world in his position.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you compare me with any player in my position, not only in my team but in the world, you will find that I am the best,\u201d Salah told BeIN Sports.<\/p>\n
\u201cI always focus on my work and do my best and my numbers are the best proof of my words.<\/p>\n
\u201cI like to always create a new challenge for me, to work in a different way and to make a difference and that is my duty.\u201d<\/p>\n
